Europe Ecology - The Greens

Europe Ecology - The Greens (EELV) is a green political party in France, founded on 13 November 2010. The EELV party became the third-largest leftist party in France after the Socialist Party of France and the Front de Gauche, advocating a 40% reduction of carbon dioxide emissions, phasing out nuclear energy in favor of renewable energy, the creation of 600,000 "green jobs", eco-friendly urban planning, sustainable agriculture, a moratorium on the use of GMOs, and France remaining in the European Union. In early 2017, the party held 9/577 National Assembly seats, 5/348 Senate seats, and 5/74 European Parliament seats.
